研究方向

Start by tracing the CSIDriver configuration and the NodePublishVolume implementation, then find where the replace time is computed for the restarter annotation. The issue proposes opt-in per-volume certificate renewal, safe replacement of files in mounted volumes, and retaining restart behavior as a fallback. Done would include renewal on republish without exposing partially written certificates; the issue names no files or tests.

Description

Right now, when a cert from the secret-operator gets close to expiring, the restarter just kills the pod based on the annotation set by secret-op (I think). That works, but it’s annoying for things that are slow to come back up or don't handle restarts well (looking at you, NiFi!), and it means short cert lifetimes come with a lot of restarts.

Some products can already reload certs from disk on their own. For example NiFi does this with nifi.security.autoreload.enabled. For products like that, it’d be nice if we could swap the cert in the volume and let the product take it from there, without forcing an unneeded restart on the pod.

The CSI lifecyle in Kubernetes has a hook for this: if we set requiresRepublish: true on our CSIDriver, the kubelet keeps calling NodePublishVolume for volumes that are already mounted. We can use that to check whether the cert is past its replace time and, if so, issue a new one and write it into the existing volume. We already compute that time for the restarter annotation, so we’d mainly need to keep it somewhere cheap to check, for example in memory with a small file in the volume as a fallback after the driver restarts.

This would have to be opt-in per volume, since products that don’t reload would just keep using the old cert until it expires. We’d probably also keep the restarter annotation as a safety net in case reissuing fails.

Bit of file handling to investigate since we don't want half-written certs being read, so probably need to come up with some symlink or mv magic, but that should be doable.
